Social work with groups /
Mendoza, Thelma Lee
Social work with groups / Thelma Lee-Mendoza. - Quezon City : Megabooks, c1999. - 344 p. 22 cm.
The book, which consists of 352 pages, is the first of its kind in the Philippines. It has been written to respond to the lack of standard reference works for use by social work students and practitioners. Specifically, it is intended to help the reader acquire an understanding and appreciation of the basic knowledge and skills for beginning competence in social work practice particularly with small groups, both in traditional settings such as hospitals, courts, and family and child-caring institutions and in recently developed or emerging settings such as human settlements and women-oriented agencies. The book discusses the historical and conceptual framework of group practice and the phases in group development and the social work helping process. It focuses on four theoretical models/approaches in group work which are documented with case illustrations. The book includes more than a hundred pages of appended material, from group dynalics theory to sample group recording forms and review questions. The book should be useful not only to students and faculty of schools of social work but to those who are in the human services like members of social agencies boards, administrators, volunteers, and para- profesionals, who desire a deeper understanding of social work operations.
